Cyclops is the one–eyed puppet with powerful outside, he serves as the puppets’ lookout for the others. He was originally a rod puppet created by André Toulon in Paris of France in 1902.

History

The puppet was to be used for a famous Theatre Magique Puppet Show about six damned mortals who are trapped in Hell. Latour Jefferson, a one-eyed French puppeteer did the voice for him on stage. When the Egyptian sorcerer Afzel passed the secret of life onto Toulon, he was pursued by three of Sutekh's Mummy Servants who wanted to steal it back from him.

They killed all of Toulon's friends and he avenged them by putting their souls into the puppets and bringing them to life. Cyclops helped Toulon in fighting the mummies and building signs of protection to ward them off.

Many years later, during the second World War, Blade found Cyclops's severed head in the puppet trunk. The head was badly damaged and had a huge scar across it. It is unknown how he was destroyed.
